UNCERTAINTY

This veil of uncertainty: overwhelming.

It’s running me down,

It’s riling me up!

The over exhaustive tosses of it-

is crumbling my energy away.

Uncertainty of time,

Uncertainty of place,

Uncertainty of everything-

That’s hiding in disguise!

I’m well aware of the faith

that’s dormant in me.

I’m well aware of the light that’s 

smoldering within,

Abandoning smoke to fog up-

my window to the other side!

Oh dear Uncertainty,

I eagerly wish for your well-being;

I hope you haven’t forgotten-

you’re merely a voyager of time.

Soon you’ll be pushed to the past,

and in no time you’ll be replaced

I’m quite certain of that,

Aren’t you?!
